Elevators

Over the past few days I've been throwing away old magazines to make room for those arriving in 2012. As I went through the different places where I store them I found this booklet from a previous job I had where the company asked its top creative minds a number of questions and before I knew it I had spent a good 30 minutes laughing at people's responses.

The question I like the most was "If you were to get stuck in an elevator, who would you like to be in there with you?" The responses were varied but many of them named their family members and other their favorite artists and even politicians... but the best ones were on the lines of: "a claustrophob, so I can monitor the hysteria process", "why do I have to get stuck in an elevator?", "an elevator technician so I can get out of there as fast as I can", and finally a friend of mine said "George Clooney, se wa can talk about Como, wine and movies" and 2 weeks later she saw him at an airport!

So in the spirit of fun and getting ready for the weekend "If you got stuck in an elevator, who would you like to be in it?"... My pics today would be the people I've been wanting to work with so I can get that much desired job once and for all!

I love questions/games like this. Pretty fun conversations to start at a dinner party... anyway, I think I would want to be stuck with my sisters. We keep each other entertained especially in stressful situations. Or if they're not avail, then a cute boy would be fun too.

I would definitely have to say my boyfriend, Kevin. For a number of reasons, 1st because he and I can always make fun out of nothing and I know we would just sit in the corner; cuddling and talking while we waited to be rescued. And 2nd because I know I would be FREAKIN' out and he's always calm and has a way of keeping me calm! - Fun post!

I guess I wouldn't mind being stuck in an elevator so much if the person I was with had a sense of humor about it and the elevator had a bathroom {what if I had too much water or coffee before getting on?}.

Good luck getting the job you are hoping for! These days job hunting is not. fun. at. all.

I'm going to have to steal your answer. How many times have I wished I could run into someone who could advance my career and get just 5 minutes? I could spend hours in the elevator with no stress if this was the case:)

If I could get stuck in an elevator with anyone, it'd have to be... My best friend/maid of honor! I'm in the middle of wedding planning, and I know we'd use the time to brainstorm/organize details for the big day. :)

After a few minutes of being stuck in an elevator I would likely start to freak out from imagining all of these horrific things that could go wrong and happen so I would definitely need to be stuck with someone to keep me calm.

Hahaha. Love those answers. Fabulous question too. Hmm...I'd love to get stuck with New Kid's on the Block so that I could ask them why they never responded to the 1,200 love letters I sent to them as a kid :)

I will be really swallow and i will answer: with the boy i like from university and he doesn't even know my name! (ok i know it is lame and childish and i am not 12 years old and am i a looser or what? hahaha ok i knowall these but still this is my answer! :D)

I'd love get stuck all by myself, and relish the opportunity to just sit there and do absolutely nothing, enjoy the moment of solitude... Eventually I'd get rescued hopefully by a crew of handsome firemen... Love your blog. noe at www.hotcelebration.com

lol oh that's great. I love that she saw Clooney not long after! Did they get to have that chat? ;)Hmm aside from my fiance, or an elevator electrician because that's a smart one, I'd have to say Rowan Atkinson acting as Mr.Bean, cause I could just imagine the amazingly funny/crazy things he'd do to get out of there.

What a fabulous question! I asked my husband, and he said "you" (meaning me, I said that's boring, then he said "okay, Karl Marx or Nelson Mandela or maybe Indra Ghandi) I'd probably love to be stuck in there with my sisters!

Elevator with Daniel Craig is my first thought but i think i prefer someone more intellectual and "posh" so Clive Owen is the perfect man to stuck with in an elevator. I like your idea of this post.Sending you lots of love and kisses my dear.Best regardsMiss Margaret Cruzemarkhttp://margaretcruzemark.blogspot.com/
